What Do You Understand It Takes For A Person To Go To Heaven?
Let’s consider how the Bible answers this Question. It’s a matter of Faith.
F is For FORGIVENESS. We cannot have eternal life without God’s Forgiveness.
A is for AVAILABLE. Forgiveness is available.
I is for IMPOSSIBLE. It is impossible for God to allow sin into Heaven. Because of who He is: God is loving and just. His judgment is against sin. Because of who we are: Every person is a sinner.
But how can a sinful person enter heaven, when God allows no sin?
H is for HEAVEN. Heaven is eternal life. Here. Hereafter.
T is for TURN. Turn means to repent. Turn From something: sin and self. Turn to someone: true Christ only.
How can a person have forgiveness, heaven and eternal life, and Jesus as a personal Savior and Lord? By trusting in Christ and asking Him for forgiveness. Take the step of faith described by another meaning Faith: Forsaking All I Trust Him.
Prayer:
Lord Jesus, I know I am a sinner and have displeased you in many ways. I believe You died for my sin and only through faith in Your death and resurrection can I be forgiven. I want to turn from my sin and ask You to come into my life as my Savior and Lord. From this day on. I will follow You by living a life that pleases You. Thank You, Lord Jesus for saving me. Amen.
After you have received Jesus Christ into your life, tell a Christian friend about this important decision you have made. Follow Christ in believer’s baptism and church membership. Grow in your faith and enjoy new friends in Christ by becoming part of His church. There, you’ll find others who will love and support you.
